Spider-Man #1 Green & Silver Black Ed Complete Set NM 1990 McFarlane Sealed NM For Sale

Spider-Man #1 (1990) — Green & Silver/Black Editions — Both Factory Sealed | Todd McFarlane | \"Torment\" Part 1 of 5

This is one of the most iconic first issues in modern comic book history: Todd McFarlane\'s landmark solo Spider-Man #1 (1990, Marvel Comics), offered here as a complete two-edition set comprising the Green cover edition (US $1.75, Printed in Canada) and the Silver/Black cover edition (US $2.00 newsstand/collector\'s price variant), both kicking off McFarlane\'s celebrated \"Torment\" five-part story arc — a run that redefined Spider-Man\'s visual identity and cemented McFarlane as a superstar artist-writer. Both copies feature the now-legendary McFarlane signature easter egg hidden in the lower-right corner of the cover art, a subtle autograph embedded directly into the printed artwork itself. This issue shattered sales records upon release, with over 2.5 million copies sold, making it one of the best-selling single issues of the entire decade.

• Green Cover Edition: US $1.75 | Printed in Canada | McFarlane signature easter egg visible on lower-right cover | Polybag flat, undamaged, no visible crushing or significant bag wear
• Silver/Black Cover Edition: US $2.00 price variant | $2 collector\'s item sticker clearly intact | Well-preserved in sealed polybag | McFarlane signature easter egg present
• Both copies: Appear to remain in original factory-sealed polybags with red taped closures intact — a significant preservation factor for 30+ year old stock
• Back covers: Both feature the period-correct Konami NES advertisement (Super C / Snake\'s Revenge) — crisp, clean printing with no visible tears or moisture damage to bags
• Story Arc: \"Torment\" Part One of Five
• Publisher: Marvel Comics | Year: 1990

Both copies present in Near Mint (NM) condition, displaying only the most minor handling evidence consistent with carefully preserved, decades-old sealed stock — these are outstanding examples of both editions sealed together as originally sold.

Please examine the pics closely. I\'m a former comic shop owner with many years\' experience grading and selling comics. I believe comics should be read, not slabbed. I\'m happy to send more images on request. CGC grading scale definitions I refer to when grading books are shown below. I generally review E-Bay and Go Collect to set my pricing.

I hope you enjoy your purchase! DL
